what is  bare-metal GCC toolchain

Hello Friends,

the Development board which i have is Altera SoC Cyclone V, and license which come along with this is entitled DS-5 altera Edition toolkit.

Altera ppl inform me that


  1. This toolkit doesn't include a license to the ARM Compiler.
  2. Altera SoC EDS provides a bare-metal GCC toolchain from Mentor Graphics Corporation and a Linux GCC toolchain from Linaro.

now my question is what is

bare-metal GCC toolchain and Linux GCC toolchain...?
